survived my first day of preop diet...

starved most of the day until dinner and then was amazed to discover I ACTUALLY like whole wheat pasta (it is the only carb I am allowed) anyway- it was not easy, but as many have said..I Am sure it gets easier every day! 

I am drrrrrrrrrrrrrrraaagggging today! So tired! 

Today is day # 2 of pre-op diet for me...has not been so bad, but I cut out my Dr Peppers a month ago, so I was over the caffeine. I drank 3 Atkins Advantage shakes yesterday and on shake # 2 for today. The Cafe Caramel Mocha ones are especially yummy. I have broth, but I have not touched it yet. Drinking LOTS of water, but I do that anyway...I am waiting for the hunger to set in, but so far it has been pretty ok.
Good luck to you!!!

I am feeling lucky that I am allowed a little more than protein shakes.

I am allowed some fruit....one yogurt....1oz nuts, 4oz meat, 4 oz veggies, and 4oz whole grain pasta or rice a day....

plus two protein shakes.



It helps that I lost a pound since yesterday too! ;)

Keep up the good work ladies! It is all for a GREAT cause!!!! I'll save a seat for you on the loser's bench.

thank you! =)

Today is day #2 for me and although i woke up with the headache still i have a renewed sense of purpose and determination. I hope your day 2 goes well and like Offshore said, its for a good purpose... keep on keeping on!!! Good Luck !

to you as well! I am off work today so it should be a little easier! :)
